You work in an embassy

CIO1 Hm this doesn’t seem like a position to locate at the embassy imo, but possibly.

But at any rate, an embassy shouldn’t count here. While you’re on foreign soil at an embassy, you haven’t changed continents. E.g. When I’m in Martinique, am I in North America or Europe?

Today is my orientation @EY GDS. Any recommendations that I should need to know!? Any questions that I should keep in focus!?

My DOJ is 21st March (today) - can someone reflect questions that I should ask first hand during the orientation!?

1. WFH status
2. Balance Payment for March!?
3.Pay Cycle?
4. Leave Policies?

Anything that really should be known which could come handy. Calling experienced folls but who can help me figure out on this one, please!

Thank you so much in advance.

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.

I miss music. Like actual bands with instruments and vocal ability. Feels like the music industry is so hollowed out that multi-member instrumental bands like Fleetwood Mac, The Beatles, and even Metallica are no longer able to take root.

There are a few talented individual singers (Adele) a lot of awful mumble rappers, but no actual bands that will stand the test of time. Before I get called a Boomer, the problems with the music industry for new artists are well documented.

Going through a rough patch, mental-health wise. I have always been a high performer and dont back down from challenges. But this past month something feels off in my head and I have 0% motivation for anything at the moment. Brief run down: work-stress, meeting expectations, fear of failure, imposter-syndrome, negative self-image (probably from all the time I spend on IG… might need therapy. 🥲
I don’t know what went wrong, but I don’t think I’m the only one to have felt this. Sorry for the sads!

I'm starting to realize that a lot of my life problems are from me trying to treat my depression with alcohol. This is the most sober I've been in a long time and generally I feel a lot better but it would be so easy to get drunk. Physically the consequences are what are keeping me from doing it. It makes me feel really good though and I miss the high, I am grateful that I can resist it now but at least temporarily it was a cure that worked it made me feel accepted and whole.
